Log::Report::Optional(3pm) User Contributed Perl Documentation Log::Report::Optional(3pm)

NAME

Log::Report::Optional - pick Log::Report or ::Minimal

INHERITANCE

 Log::Report::Optional
   is an Exporter

SYNOPSIS

  # Use Log::Report when already loaded, otherwise Log::Report::Minimal
  package My::Package;
  use Log::Report::Optional 'my-domain';

DESCRIPTION

This module will allow libraries (helper modules) to have a dependency to a small module instead of the full Log-Report distribution. The full power of "Log::Report" is only released when the main program uses that module. In that case, the module using the 'Optional' will also use the full Log::Report, otherwise the dressed-down Log::Report::Minimal version.

For the full documentation:

  • see Log::Report when it is used by main
  • see Log::Report::Minimal otherwise

The latter provides the same functions from the former, but is the simpelest possible way.

METHODS

$class->usedBy()
Returns the classes which loaded the optional module.

SEE ALSO

This module is part of Log-Report-Optional version 1.08, built on September 08, 2025. Website: http://perl.overmeer.net/CPAN/
